I think I've accumulated enough acronym cruft in my middling age where it has introduced serious imprecision in my language and understanding. Particularly when the recycling of acronyms is so common. PTP, P2P, PVP, NTP, LDAP, DNS, SMTP, B2B, CRM, SAP, SATA, IDE, PCI...at some point these terms stop meaning anything to me anymore and my eyes glaze rather than recollect context

Ye olde double edged sword

On one hand aggressively punitive copyright claims stifle creativity and innovation in transformative art. On the other hand, generative AI reopens that transformative creativity.

This actually begs the question...why the fuck would they use THESE for an airshow? They're aesthetically identical to F18 from a ground silhouette perspective. They blew through some really expensive planes from a much smaller fleet for a pony show that any regular F18 could've been part of.

I think at a certain point you need to just call it quits with that sort of bullshit. I have my dignity. I'm a fucking grown adult. I'm not going to spend my spare time haplessly looking online to unfuck the new current set of fuckery. Just take the fucking bullet. Learn linux. Congrats you're playing whack-a-mole with a trillion dollar corporation and prolonging your misery. This is stupid.

people still insist on using a browser built by a company that makes money off of ads and act surprised when said company purposefully compromises their privacy and data on said browser.

The dialogue options and scenario possibility outcomes were very impressive for its time. Still kinda is today. It's more in depth than you'd think. The levels are pretty sandboxy with how they allow you to approach missions and it still holds up today. Deus Ex came out in that period of time where stealth games were popular, so there's a lot of emphasis on subterfuge mechanics.

SEBI wasn't bold at all. They saw them do this in January, told them in February to stop, and they persisted until they finally shut the operation off. They were tipped off as early as November 2024 that this was happening. If anything SEBI was incredibly slow at reacting lol

Nobody is discounting the efficiency of meatwave tactics. The problem is Russia postured itself as being the highly competent alternative force of the world order outside the sphere of North America and Western Europe. Which they demonstrably are not.

/k/ has hated Russian milsurp slavshit far longer than they cared about Ukraine. For years Russiaboos would shit up the board that almighty AK superior firearm or that Russian magical remote turret tank best tank in the world or that new gen fighter plane best stealth plane in the world and all 1/10 of stupid american military budget bullshit.

turns out all that crap was just what everyone expected it to be: fabricated lies. And also Russians are really bad at conducting war and resorting to meat wave tactics. For a board that cares about firearms and military tactics, it didn't take too much of a far reach to dislike and laugh at Russia.
